Blizzard Does Not Stop Presen- . 
tation of Annual Play 



WAR CORRESPONDENT IS 
SPEAKER AT WOOD-MAR 



Despite all weather conditions on Fri- 
day, January 17, the Freshman class 
presented their play, "Martha-By-The- 
Day," to a small, but appreciative au- 
dience. This comedy by Julie M. Llpp- 
man Js a play of different type than has 
been seen nt the College for some time 
and was voted a real success. 

The plot dealt with Martha Slawson's 
attempt to support her family, send 
her sick husband to the mountains, and 
secure a "millionaire mate" for Claire 
Lang. When Frank Ronald, Martha's 
employed, came to the Slawsons' Hat, 
Miss Lang discovered he was the young 
man she used to meet at the office. 
Then the Slawson family went to Ron- 
ald's country estate where Martha work- 
ed. Sam was the chauffeur, and Claire 
took care of Radcliff Sherman, Ronald's 
sister's son. Martha did her best to 
bring Claire and Mr. Ronald together 
but found it difficult because of Claire's 
conscience. In the end Martha helped 
prove that Allen Sherman had been un- 
justly sent to prison for a theft his 
wife had committed. Finally she even 
brought the two young people together, 
much to her satisfaction. 

The outstanding character, of course, 
was Dorothy McMichael as Martha, 
ller interpretation of the wit, humor, 
pathos, and courage of the Irish woman 
was excellent. 

Dennis McGuire as Frank Ronald was 
equally good in his light and serious 
moments. His attempts to exchange 
other than "commonplaces" with Claire 
were particularly amusing. Arloene 
Davey played the charming Miss Lang 
very well. She was cultured, well-ed- 
ucated (having graduated from Welles- 
ley) and very conscientious. 

Mary Sue Binford as Ma Slawson, 
Sam's mother, was the amusing, bother- 
some old lady of the family. Phyllis 
Thorne and Marian Coffee, playing 
Francie and Cora Slawson, gave very 
good portrayals of these two dissatis- 
fied girls. Cora was especially rebel- 
lious and was always in trouble. Don 
Larimer was good as Sam Slawson, 
Martha's husband with the bad cough 
and the willingness to let her manage 
everything. 

Bertha Walton took the part of the 
haughty, deceitful Mrs. Allen Sherman. 
She showed real ability in several dra- 
matic scenes. Amy Pelham, played by 
Lillian Barnes, was one complicating 
factor in the love affair between Ronald 
and Claire, because she was Mrs. Sher- 
man's favorite. 

Russell Millet was Alien Sherman, 
who returned from prison, hardened and 
set in his purpose to see his son. Hans 
Nieland. as Steve Lundy was the amus- 
ing man who came to cellect Martha's 
rent and left without it. Shaw, the 
typical butler at the Sherman's was 
played by Wendell Mills. Flicker was 
the clog who was partly responsible for 
Ronald's meeting Miss Claire at Slaw- 
son's. 

Altogether the play was a fine per- j 
fromance, the success of which was 



Accounts of Travels and Experiences of 
Great Intel est to Student Body 

Mr. Shearer, who has been a war cor- 
respondent for the Chicago Tribune at 
Paris, gave an interesting chapel tolk 
Friday. Jan. 24. 

He told of his experiences in the Riff 
country and his adventures theie. In 
1925 during the trouble at Morocco ho 
was sent by the Chicago Tribune, from 
Paris where he was situated. He stated 
that the state of culture of the Riff 
tribe was almost as primitive as is pos- 
sible for civilized tribes to be. The 
country is an agricultural country but 
during the war in 1925 they lived by 
plunder. The Riffs attracted much at- 
tention on account of their desire for 
freedom. 

He then told of his impressions while 
in Palestine and the conditions there at 
the present time. Palestine Is the sim- 
ple pastoral country of the Sth century 
but the people have the most advanced 
kind of culture which suggests the cul- 
ture of Soviet Russia. 

In Palestine there are 150,000 Jews 
and 800,000 Arabs. The Arab majority 
is in general a peaceful majority, but 
in 1929 they broke out in riots. Some 
trouble about the "Wailing Wall" caus- 
ed it all. The riots, instead of reliev- 
ing the feelings of the Arabs, have in- 
creased their hatred and now instead 
of friendly feelings towards the Jews 
there is this tense feeling which is li- 
able at any moment to break out in 
more riots.

(Continued on page two) 



, "The Thrice Promised Bride," a one 
act play, by Chengchin Hsuing, was 
presented by the Expression class at 
Student Chapel, Thursday, Jan. 23. The 
play being a Chinese piny was very 
unique and was enjoyed by the student 
body. The characters were as follows: 
Wang Ta-Ming, the Magistrate, Burton 
Frost; Tuan Chai, the secretary, Jose- 
phine Smith; Chung Ting, the knight, 
Doyle Green; Wang Mei-Pao, the First 
Matchmaker, La Verne Hutchins; Han 
Chu-Yin, the Bride, Genevieve Badley; 
The Bride's Mother, Generva Street; 
Chien Shon, an old man, Veldon Di- 
ment; Tu Kuang-Yang, the beggar 
Scholar, Carl Sandoz; Lin Ma, the sec- 
ond matchmaker, Ethel Newberry. The 
attendants were Mabel Kendall and Dor- 
othea Nordyke; the musicians, Elinor 
Whipple, Elva Votaw and Genevieve 
Badley. The time was long ago, many 
years before China became a republic. 
Place: The Magistrate's Court in an in- 
terior district in Ho-Nan Province, Chi- 
na. 

A Chinese play is very different than 
an American play. We have the stage 
all set with appropriate furniture and 
pictures, etc. They have a properly 
manager who places the articles as they 
are needed and lakes them away when 
the players are through with them. 
The American audience is supposed to 
know the setting from the "write-up" 
in the newspaper, from the showy post- 
ers or at the last minute from the 
printed program. In a Chinese play the 
principal character relates the circum-

GOLDEN AGE OF COLLEGE 
LIFE WAS PRESENTED 



Students Greatly Enjoy Ta'k About 
College Life of Years Ago 

Professor Conover gave a very inter- 
esting chapel talk, Monday, Jan. 20, con- 
cerning The Golden Age of College Life. 

There have been many golden ages: 
Industrial, Social, Literary, and many 
otheis. But we are interested in the 
Golden Age of College Life. Which is 
the Golden Age? That is a question 
upon which all disagree. 

College Life is a very complex sort 
of thing. Let us view college life from 
two points of view — from the adminis- 
trative point of view and from the stu- 
dent's point of view. 

(1) The Education of the Golden Age 
was intensive. It trained one how to 
think. The methods of discipline were 
sure and directly applied. A most eco- 
nomical silualion existed on the cam- 
pus. The doimitory owned their own 
cow. The waste product, if any, from 
the dorm was fed to the swine which 
in turn were fed to the students. Thus 
the economic conditions were perfect. 

There were small libraries with few 
book" and nearly two-thirds of them 
were theology boks. 

(2) There was very little recreation 
and social life. There was no gymna- 
sium, no exercise except walking. There 
Wfp locating societies though. Thus 
it was always a serious minded group 
of students who were graduated from 
the colleges in the Golden Age. 

The rooming facilities in the dormi- 
tories were very economical. There was 
no beat in the rooms and there was 
one fireplace in the common hall which 
could be utilized if the students pro- 
vided their own fuel and candle. Thus 
dormitory life was inducive to a vigor- 
ous life. The windows, which nowadays 
are used to admit light and furnish 
ventilation, were then used only as a 
means of relieving one's room of rub- 
bish. There was no water supply. The 
advantages were that (1) life was real- 
ity. (2) produced vigorous and hardy 
students, if by no other means than by 
survival of the fittest. The food was 
also a subject of importance. For ex- 
ample, at Harvard during the Golden 
Age the meals were as follows: break-

LOCAL PEOPLE ENJOY 
FACULTY MALE SINGERS 

Lyceum Number by Quartet Is 
Well Received by Patrons 



The Faculty Male Quartet, in pre- 
senting their number of the lyeeum 
course, gave an evening of fine enter- 
tainment Monday, January 20 Those 
who braved the inclement weather to 
attend the program were well repaid 
for their trouble. The audience was en- 
thusiastic In their reception of the var- 
ious numbers but there should have 
been a larger crowd, considering the 
excellency of the performance The per- 
sonnel of the quartet was: Prof. Con- 
over, first tenor; Prof. Lewis, second 
tenor; Prof. Gulley, baritone, and Pres- 
Pennington, basso. 

At the opening of the program the 
four men were presumably at Pres. 
Pennington's home practicing for the 
concert, and voicing their opinions on 
several subjects. First Pres. Penning- 
ton sang two songs, one Swedish and 
one Irish, accompanying himself on the 
guitar. Prof. Lewis sang, "He's a Col- 
lege Boy," "The Old Refrain," and "The 
Night Has a Thousand Eyes." Prof. 
Gulley played a piano accompaniment 
for the last two. Then Pres. Penning- 
ton sang "Requiem," accompanied by 
Prof. Lewis. As an encore he used 
"One Hundred Fathoms Deep," singing 
it first as he did his very first solo, 
and then in a deep "he-man" voice, as 
he described it. 

Following these solos Prof. Gulley and 
Prof. Conover sang several humorous 
songs to the tunes . of "My Bonnie," 
"The Old Oaken Bucket," etc. The quar- 
tet sang "The Wise Old Owl," "The 
Story of a Lark," "Going Fishing," and 
"The Lunatic Love Song." Then Pres- 
ident Pennington read several poems 
in negro dialect from the poet John 
Charles McNeil. The poems were 
"Preacherly Preference," "Long Time 
Dead," and "A Bedtime Story." The , 
quartet closed the first half of the pro- 
gram with "Annie Laurie." 

In the second half they were in full 
dress and presented their numbers in 
a more formal manner. They first sang 
a group of three negro spirituals, "Gold- 
en Crown," "Steal Away," and "In My 
Heart." These were followed by "Lul- 
laby" and "Winter Song." The next 
number, "Little Orphant Annie," was 
the outstanding success of the evening. 
Then came "Sea Fever" from the poem 
by Masefield. The quartet closed their 
program with two sacred songs, "One 
Sweetly Solemn Thought" and "The 
Twenty-third Psalm." 



WE THANK YOU! 

The Freshman class, and in fact the 
entire college, appreciated the work of 
the Fire Department in clearing the 
driveway and the streets around the 
college on the day of the Freshman 
play. We wish to express this appre- 
ciation and feel sure that the people 
attending the play also felt great appre- 
ciation and perhaps did not know whom 
to thank. 



Martha: "You certainly are the fast- 
est thing on record. If you'd been born 
a train you'd been an express."

BRIDGE 

The engineer stands in the moonlight 
Surveying his achievement; 
A lithe span of steel, 
Rythmic as a poem, 
Between two points of reality. 

Across it he walks; 
No longer a dream. 

— La Baron Cooke 

Did you ever think of your four years of college work as a 
bridge spanning the chasm between the desert land of Restricted 
Opportunity and the fertile valley of Success? We are all en- 
gineers and we are all building our bridges from the blue prints 
drawn by our own selves. Will our bridge stand the buffeting 
of wind and water? We are now in the process of laying and 
anchoring one of the important and very essential beams of our 
bridge. Will we fasten it securely ? Some of the bridges have 
been building for nearly four years and are almost done. Others 
have just begun the foundation. The bridges are not alike, and 
each is built to accommodate only its builder. 

There will be great storms, floods and perhaps earthquakes 
in the future of our lives. Will our bridges withstand against 
these things ? When we have crossed our bridge and have climbed 
to the height of the mountain peak, Attainment, will be able to 
look down into the valley and see our bridge, a lithe span of steel, 
rythmic as a poem? 

May we build so well that we may at the end of our college 
life, walk across our bridge and find it to be no longer a dream 
but a beautiful reality. 

With a smile, 

Editor.

The expression class worked out the

to everyone.

DORMITORV EXISTENCE 

IN WINTER TIME 

"How little do we realize the blessings 
with which we are showered." What 
we want to know is, "Who said that?" 
Think of the poor caveman and how 
he used to exist in weather like this. 
Yes, just think of him, and maybe you'll 
stop howling about the weather long 
enough to give someone else, perhaps 
not quite so noisy as you, a chance to 
exercise his bellows, too! 

Imagine the caveman, in all his glo- 
ry, eventually waking up, at the re- 
quest of 2 rising bells, 1 radio, 1 phon- 
ograph, and 6 hoarse cave brethren. 
What the fur fly as a thong snaps 
in the process of boot-lacing He has 
no college building to refer to when 
he finds the water pipes frozen, and 
icicles flow from the faucets. No one 
rings the last bell while he puts on a 
shirt with one hand, a tie with the 
other, and tries to keep his pants up 
during the process of a mad dash from 
one dorm to the other. "Order! Order!" 
no one shouts at him, during a short 
snooze at the table. "Waffles a la 
Grants Pass — Oh no — weak tea, please, 
without the leaves," he drawls back to 
nobody. 

He has nobody to throw snowballs at 
him, as the he trundles off to school 
with both arms full of books, only to 
find that he is exiled from Room 14, 
and has nobody but 37 girls to shove off 
the hall register before he can start 
to study. 

He never has to pull his feet up 
around his neck in bed, when some sap 
decides to take a midnight shower with 
the drain frozen, to keep the overflow- 
ing water from the floor above from 
dampening his lower extremities. 

In fact he never has to worry about 
anything, except what to do with his 
spare time. 

Nowadays we are living in the most 
improved days of mankind, when — men 
are Icicles and women play carroms — 
but for us, give us the hardships of 
the caveman — when men were men, and 
women didn't stand over hot-air regis-

KING WINTER DESCENDS ON 

PACIFIC COLLEGE CAMPUS 



For the past week and a half the Wil- 
lamette valley has been ruining its rep- 
utation for fair weather. In spite of 
the fact that some of the students are 
having their first experience with cold 
weather, most of them are enjoying it 
while they may. 

At the first of the cold spell skating 
was in proper order. The ice on the 
pond near Harle's may not have been 
as smooth as glass but most of the 
would-be-skaters report that it is hard- 
er than lots of things. No casualties 
from the attempts at grace have been 
reported aside from a few bumps and 
bruises and perhaps a fractured skull 
or two. It is certain that the skating 
was good and lots of fun for everyone 
concerned. . 

The snow storm seemed to draw at- 
tention to the use of sleds. Groups of 
the students have been having a great 
deal of fun coasting on the hills around 
town. The sport has been not without 
educational value as well. It is reported 
that some of the dormitory men have 
become so efficient as to construct, with 
aid from outside energies, a trusty sled. 
One broken finger and a few minor in- 
juries such as skinned noses 

have resulted from over-enthusiasm, or 
perhaps neglect of the speed laws and 
the laws of Newton. 

All together the student body has been 
enjoying the storm and are still doing 
so. 



KING GEORGE AND THE DORM 

Last Monday night — or Tuesday morn- 
ing, to be technical — Fire Chief Choate 
exercised his granted powers to a very 
good purpore, namely, ringing the fire 
drill in the men's dorm about 2:30 in 
the wee sma hours, taking unfair ad- 
vantage of the sleepy horde by order- 
ing them into Oren's hangout for the 
express purpose and privilege of listen- 
ing to King George the V, at 3 a. m. 
over the radio. 

The sleepy batch of bachelors dream- 
ily heard and enjoyed (?) first, King 
George, then Ramsey McDonald, prime 
minister of England, and also Secretary 
Stimson of the United States. 

The occasion was a rare treat for 
the dorm boys, but rumors are traveling 
around to the effect that the transla- 
tions of the speeches into French and 
Italian sounded strangely like the snores 
of several of the dorm Freshmen, es- 
pecially the Hon. roommate of Noel 
Bowman. 



WHAT THE FOURTH YEARS THINK 

It would seem to the Fourth Years 
that the Room 14 edict punished only 
those who have been using the library 
for study. 

One of our teachers recently remark- 
ed that as review week is never taken 
seriously, It would be well to do away 
with it. We'll go the teacher one bet- 
ter by suggesting that we do away with 
exams, but, as President says, "There 
isn't a chance in the world." 

Now would be a good time for a 
treasure hunt! We could follow the 
tracks of those who did the hiding. 

The College ought to take more daily 
papers. With several professors and 
students who enjoy the comic strips and 
sport items, anyone endeavoring to get 
a needed report on current events is 
apt to wish for less competition. 

The Fourth Tears are developing a 
good deal of dramatic ability. When 
the leading character in a play can 
send his shoes out to a fellow sufferer 
and make it appear a part of the pro- 
ceedure, the aforementioned ability is 
proved. 



A homesick Irishman got a job as 
railroad crossing guard. The foreman 
handed him a red flag and a green flag, 
and said: 

"Whenever you see a train coming, 
get out and wave this red flag." 

"Git away wid yer job!" exclaimed 
Pat, "Me wave a red flag whin Ol 
have a grane wan handy? OI'll starve 
first." 



Mr. Klein: "Why did you get me such 
big shirts? These are four sizes too 
large for me." 

Mrs. K.: "They cost just the same as 
your size and I wasn't going to let 
a strange clerk know I'd married such 
a little shrimp as you." 



Window cleaners are not the only 
ones in hazardous occupations. We 
heard about a magazine editor who 
dropped eleven stories into a waste 
basket.

WORK BEGINS ON THE 

CAST FOR A. S. B. PLAY 



The next dramatic presentation of 
the Associated Student Body is to be 
the play, "The Passing of the Third 
Floor Back," by Jerome K. Jerome. 
This is a rather unusual type of play 
but has been pronounced intensely in- 
teresting by those who have seen or 
read the play. Work has already begun 
on the choosing of the cast. This pro- 
duction promises to be one worthy of 
the reputation which Pacific College has 
regarding the plays presented from time 
to time. Watch for more news con- 
cerning this play!

Y. M. C. A. 



January 22 

A joint meeting of Y. W. C. A. and 
Y. M. C. A. was held to hear Prof, Gui- 
ley speak about "Missionary Mexico." 

Mr. Gulley gave an interesting lec- 
ture on the growth of Christianity in 
Mexico and its effect on the growth 
of the country. In the course of his 
speech he told of the founding of the 
first Quaker Mission in Mexico which 
was established in Matamoras, and gave 
a short though interesting account of 
the life of Samuel Purdy, first Amer- 
ican Quaker missionary in Mexico.

GOLDEN AGE OF COLLEGE 

LIFE WAS PRESENTED 



(Continued from page one) 



fast, two slices of bread and half-pint 
of beer; dinner, sliced meat, baked or 
boiled potatoes, and bread; supper, 
bread and milk, chocolate or tea. 

The advantages that this method af- 
forded were: (1) Overeating avoided. (2) 
Highly selective group of college stu- 
dents. 

Thus we can see that the Golden Age 
of College Life graduated a distinctly 
superior group of students. 



A lady brought into court charged 
with assault upon a neighbor pleaded 
not guilty. The prosecutor leaned for- 
ward and shouted: 

"If we prove you guilty, which we 
shall do, will you tell us why you 
committed this offense?" 

"I will not!" retorted the defendant, 
"I had my own reasons." 



Housewife: "Why didn't you send 
your man to fix my door bell as you 
promised?" 

Electrician: "He ciid go, madam, but 
as he rang three times and got no an- 
swer, h.e concluded that nobody was at 
home." 



Burton: "Mother, am I a canoe?" 

Mother: "Certainly not! What makes 
you think that?" 

Burton: "Well, you are always saying 
you like to see people paddle their own 
canoes, and I thought I must be yours." 



The professor asked one of the stu- 
dents in his class this question: "Can 
you give the class an example of wasted 
energy?" 

"Yes, sir. To tell a hair-raising story 
to a baldheaded man." 



"These are hard times. The other 
day .1 heard of a man who couldn't 
raise money even on government 
bonds." 

"Indeed! What was the reason?" 
"He didn't have the bonds." 



Absent-minded Professor: "Didn't you 
have a brother in this course last year?" 

Student: "No, sir; it was I. I'm re- 
peating the course." 

A. M. P.: "Extraordinary resemblance, 
though; positively extraordinary." 



"Have you been drinking hot water 
an hour before each meal as I directed?" 

"Well, doctor, I tried it, but I had to 
give it up. I felt like a submarine af- 
ter fifteen minutes." 



She: "Before were married you told 
me you were well off." 

He: "So I was, but like a lot of other 
fools, I didn't know it." 



We learned in English that Gold- 
smith got his inspiration for "The De- 
serted Village" from a Scotch city dur- 
ing a Red Cross drive. 



Tramp: "Can you help an unfortunate 
wanderer? I've lost my leg." 

Irate Old Gentleman: "I don't have 
it. Why don't you advertise for it?" 



January 15 

"World Peace" was the topic of the 
World Fellowship Committee in Y. W. 
on January 15. The subject was pre- 
sented as a report of the world peace 
conference of youth which was held in 
Holland in 1028. Members of the com- 
mittee gave reviews of the chapters of 
the book, "Youth Looks at World 
Peace," which tells of the conference. 

There were 34 countries represented 
at this conference and many different 
languages. The obstacles to peace which 
they discovered were language, psycho- 
logical and economic barriers. They 
would not discuss the barrier of race. 
Finally youth turned to education, and 
the conclusion to which they came was 
that the world must be changed by ed- 
ucation instead of by force. 



Careless seems the great Avenger; his- 
tory's pages but record 

One death-grapple in the darkness 'twixt 
old systems and the Word; 

Truth forever on the scaffold, wrong 
forever on the throne. 

Yet, that scaffold sways the future and, 
behind the dim unknown, 

Standeth God within the shadow, keep- 
ing watch above his own. 

— James Russell Lowell. 



First Pedesrtian: "Say, that taxi 
nearly got you!" 

Second Pedestrian: "I knew it would- 
n't hit me." 

First: "How's that?" 

Second: "It was yellow." 



"What fo' you name yo' baby 'Elec- 
tricity,' Mose?" 

"Well, mah name am Mose and mail 
wife's name am Dinah, and if Dinah- 
mose don't make electricity, what does 
dey make?" 



Waitress (to restaurant nation): "I'm 
afraid we can't cash this chock, sir. We 
have a mutual agreement with the 
banks that we cash no checks and they 
sell no soup."

Lady on street corner: "I certainly 
shall cross, officer. I've every bit as 
much right on this street as that truck 
has!" 

Officer: "Surely you have, lady- but 
give me your name and address be- 
fore you start." 



Teacher: "Willie, when Abraham Lin- 
coln was your age, lie studied when- 
ever he had a chance." 

Willie: "When Abraham Lincoln was 
your age, he was president of the Unit- 
ed States."
